Q.What’s the status on the Mara Jade Premium Format? I talked to Adam Hughes at Comic-Con and he said it should be happening shortly.

AH! Mara Jade

AH! Every time someone so much as whispers the possibility of an Adam Hughes design at Sideshow, the team here becomes giddy. Duels have been fought over who should receive the rights to bring it to life. It can become quite messy. We have been working on our presentation of Mara Jade, taking our time [...]

Q.What does Disney’s purchase of the Lucasfilm properties mean for Sideshow’s future products?

Ask Sideshow thumb

As fans, we could not be any more excited about this announcement! First off, new movies! We didn’t even dare to dream beyond the Prequel Trilogy, and now we learn of a whole new SLEW of films coming our way. The team here at Sideshow does not expect to know any official details anytime soon, [...]

Q.What are the chances of the next four life size busts being Shaak-Ti, Battle Droid, Tusken Raider and Chewbacca? Could you also tell us when we might see a Production Peek or the next pre order?

Damn, those are some good picks. The next you’ll see from Star Wars in the way of Life-Size Busts will be Jango Fett. Look out for him closer to San Diego Comic-Con…

Q.Any plans for an Echo and Fives 501st/ARC Trooper Sixth Scale set? Also, if you get around to Delta squad in Sixth Scale is there any chance their “T” visors will be light up BLUE? That would RULE and you guys know you can do it! ROCK ON SSC!

Man, right on and thanks for the encouragement! Echo and Fives have had some of the greatest stories out of the Clone Wars. We’ll probably end up releasing them as Phase 1 and Arc versions separately, but we love both looks enough that we want to eventually pay our respects to both. Delta Squad is [...]

Q.A tauntaun life size bust, or Legendary Scale Figure would be good for the ROTJ 30th Anniversary…just saying. I know it’s from ESB, but WGAF? A Yoda bust, too.

Yoda definitely needs to come back in a BIG way. A tauntaun life-size bust would be neat, especially if you happen to own a large palace somewhere in the desert.

Q.How is it that after a movie and four seasons of the Clone Wars you still haven’t produced a single Ahsoka Tano in any form? What is the hold up guys? You need to move her up on your priority list and produce something for this major character. My vote is for a Premium Format Figure. Come on already, make it happen!

So, every season, Ahsoka gets a little older, and a little more interesting. She’s blossoming into quite a character, and we’re definitely keeping an eye on her. Yeah, Premium Format could be great, and we’re even more inclined for Sixth Scale…

Q.Are we gonna see the C-3PO and R2-D2 Premium Format at this year’s SDCC?

Are THESE the droids you’re looking for? May the Fourth be with you!

Q.Hello Sideshow, I was wondering if you guys are ever going to make helmets? Like Stormtrooper, Boba Fett, Darth vader, Snowtroopers?

eFX Collectibles is the place to go for such helmet replicas. However, we plan to bring more of these characters to life as figures and busts!

Q.I must give Sideshow a great compliment about the Battle Droids and displaying the different ranks (commander, pilot, and security droids) last year at Comic-Con. I think everyone was blown away! I only hope you will give the security droid a darker red color and then you are truly the best! In the movies you can see a darker color red.

Roger roger! We’ll take another look at the red coloring before we move the Security Droid into production.

Q.Any chance we’ll ever see a Yuuzhan Vong from The New Jedi Order in 1:6th scale or Premium Format?

At this point it’s doubtful, the Vong might be a touch too fringe for our Sixth Scale line. We considered the extremely cool armor and aesthetic design but Yuuzhan would be a very ambitious character to realize in Sixth Scale, and not quite as well known as some other character choices that are likely to [...]

Q.Why don’t you make more 1:6 Scale SITH LORDS? Darth Revan, Darth Nihilus, Starkiller and other Sith like that from the games and historical timelines? If you did, I (and I’m sure many others) would certainly buy all of them! The droids, clone troopers and other basic characters like Han Solo are boring to people like me, who are into the DARKSIDE of the Force…that’s all, thanks. (p.s the G.I Joe NINJA figures are badass!!)

We absolutely should. They’re all excellent characters, and would make fantastic Sixth Scale figures. We would like to get to them all in due time. At the moment, we’re baking up a new Darth Vader and Darth Malgus. And thanks for the compliments on our Joes! Hey, Ninja + Sith = Darth Maul, right?

Q.I love the Star Wars Premium Format Figures, and have almost all of them! I am wondering if in 2013 we can get a Snowtrooper, Lando, Chewbacca, or the droids we have been looking for?

Man, you’re right on track with us here. Three of the four you listed are on tap for reveals within 2012 – be sure to stay tuned for our “May the Fourth” celebration next week! We love delivering good news :)
